Warner Bros/New Line/DC Films’ Black Adam is available for stream on Redbox for $6.99, and while I think it’s overpriced I have to admit that I’m tempted. Which is interesting because I don’t particularly care – Black Adam’s story seems fairly derivative at this point – though I’m really curious to see it because it […]
Recently James Gunn buried the hatchet with Henry Cavill about his iteration of Superman not making it into the revamped DCU, instead deciding to go with a younger version of the character. He did the same with Dwayne Johnson, who played Black Adam, though when he did so he was very likely lying and possibly […]
Remember when Dwayne Johnson tried to essentially muscle his into running the DCEU by doing things like going above Walter Hamada to get Henry Cavill to cameo in Black Adam – now keep in mind that I’m not a fan of Walter Hamada, though there is a such thing as a chain of command – […]
According to Comicbookmovie.com, James Gunn and Peter Safran’s goal is to wipe the slate clean as far as prior interpretations of DC characters in the live action space goes. And I believe that’s a likely, and more importantly, necessary step to take (and have argued it should have been taken place long before now) but […]
Remember when I wrote Can We Just Admit That Black Adam is a (Soft) Failure? Apparently I’m not the only person to think so because The Wrap has recently reached the same conclusion (you’d have to join WrapPRO to read the full article but the two paragraphs you can read gratis are enough) albeit 11 […]
I said that Black Adam would have a problem when Black Panther: Wakanda Forever premiered though people say a lot of things, it doesn’t make them true. Though the proof is in the pudding. Wakanda Forever has been out for two days – it premiered November 11 – and has pulled in $330 million. Now […]
It’s believed that Warner Bros/New Line Pictures’ Black Adam will cross the $300 million mark this weekend, which initially sounds like really good news. That is, till you take into account that the Dwayne Johnson-starrer is running out of steam, and so far hasn’t earned enough to break even (considering its production budget is somewhere […]
Remember when I wrote that Walter Hamada wasn’t long for the head of DC Films last September? I was right because while I didn’t name the circumstances under which he would leave the post, leave it he did and from the outside looking in it’s fairly obviously why: He had no idea what he was […]
The trailer dropped for Disney’s Jungle Cruise earlier today and like most movies based on theme park rides I could care less (I’m serious. I don’t think I’ve even sat though any of The Pirates Of The Caribbean movies in their entirety). That is, till I saw the cast. Emily Blunt, Dwayne Johnson, Paul Giamatti, […]
I’ll readily admit that movies like Hobbs & Shaw aren’t typically the types of movies I tend to see. Too many cars defying the laws of physics, too much exposition about people being “family” as opposed to people just acting as such. That being said I enjoyed the trailer because it rises or falls on […]
